Nicole Richie's diet pill addiction
May 26, 2006, 15:45 GMT
Nicole Richie's frightening weight loss was caused by an addiction to diet pills.
The brunette's close friend Crystal has revealed the 'Simple Life' star is hooked on Hoodia - a South African herb that fools the brain into thinking you are constantly full.
She told Britain's More magazine that Nicole once told her: 'Hoodia makes you look hot in low-cut tops and backless dresses. It is good for me - the bushmen have sworn by it for hundreds of years and that's good enough for me.' The troubled 24-year-old dropped from a US size 2 to a US size 0 in a matter of months following her brief split from Adam Goldstein last December and she recently confessed that she was too thin. The pair reportedly split again this week as a result of Nicole's constant partying and worrying eating habits.Copyright 2006 BANG Media International

i think nicole is beatiful when she had the weight on her i thought she was beautiful but like this she seems much happier.now that she has lost the weight she has giving me the focus more on myself
nicole richie struggled alot in the past with her parents divorce and drug adiction that led her to go into rehab put on weight and not even think twice on what she was doing to her body everything was probably a blurr at the time so now that she realized 'This is not healthy for me' she decided to either stop and make a change or forget about her life and let it go and being as talented as she is she decided to change and 'Ill say this 'let her be and do what ever she wants and stop judging her god loves us equally and would love us to do the same.
